About
Glashoff Farms is in Suisun Valley, a small valley nestled in the hills of California’s coastal range, northwest of Fairfield, California. Larry operates the farm full-time, while Maria raises Goldendoodles and Labradoodles on the farm. Glashoff Farms grows Franquette walnuts, Triple Crown blackberries, olallieberries, boysenberries, raspberries, Navel oranges, Seville oranges, tangerines, grapefruit, and Hachiya persimmons. They also raise beef cattle. Larry creates and sells a selection of preserves, marmalades, and nut butters from the fruits and walnuts grown on the farm. The Glashoffs use synthetic fertilizers to maintain soil fertility. They use mechanical, organic, and chemical pest and weed control methods.
